I am sure going to find out tomorrow. My eyes are too sleepy to do it tonite. I have a good friend that has a big farm and stays in the woods a lot. I will ask him too if he ever sees magpies and how big they are here. He knows all kinds of wild life and what they eat etc. (Fountain of Knowledge) LOL Nite Again, Nola

I had a bird on pics on 19th June - isn't it the same bird? After my question somebody answered telling from a photograph who takes pics and one of them shows this bird, too. One must have more time to look after that, just at this moment I will put pics here from the bear tonight and then I have to look what my cake is doing. Perhaps it will be black instead of brown?See you later - Bleggi

edit: I had a phonecall and the pics of the bear from last night have to wait

edit 2nd: red vine cake - after it is cold enough I put powdered sugar on it

One can go crazy while trying to take pictures, but the cam doesn't like it. "No, not when you like to do - only if I will..." . The same happened Felis and surely also to others here .Poor fingers and poor keys..

Yes, sometimes it does not work like we want it to work! When I saw Fleur's photos, I said that's Bleggi's bird! I think the Estonian there means something like "going to Alutaguse" (at least that's what Google translates), but I have been looking through my bird book and now I stole a photo

Felis: when I look at my book about birds I found a "Ringdrossel" Ring ouzel "Turdus torquatus". This bird has a white ribbon like a half moon on its throat and is only about 2 cm smaller than the Mistle Trush. (from Wikipedia)On this pic the bird is a bit brown, but in the wood we cannot see exactly the colour and otherwise I think it belongs to the room they live.

my one I made a bit bigger - is not clear but better than the little oneIt is only a try to find out - one day (perhaps) we will get the exact answer from a bird specialist...Greetings and a nice rest of the day Bleggi

I saw "him" again in the afternoon, and "he" had friends there as well, sitting at the place where the big bear lies down, but then ravens came and chased them away. The problem is, that one can't really say what the size is, and if the bird you saw sitting on that branch is of the same kind or not. Maybe someone looks into the thread with the questions and can tell us.

Hi Johannes! Welcome to the forum! It is quite possible that you saw a raccoon dog, we have seen quite a few of them already.

Photos you have to first upload to a host like Photobucket and post the link here. If you have time you can look through the technical questions site here: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=21, a lot of things are explained there. Otherwise, just ask, if we can help, we will certainly do! Have a good time here and lots of interesting sightings!
